The Axelrod Rasbora is vibrant and active. I kept them in a 20-gallon tank with dense plants and other peaceful fish. They swim together in schools and add a lot of color to the tank. Feeding them flake and bloodworms works well.

These fish are beautiful, especially the males. They need a well-planted tank with good swimming space. I’ve had them for three months and they’re still healthy and active.

Great addition to a community tank. They don’t stress other fish and stay calm. I feed them a mix of flake and freeze-dried foods daily. They look lively and colorful.
